Sy’s Stylized, Angular Murals

Hailing from Saint Petersburg, Russia, street artist Sy creates prismatic murals that evoke retro video games and computer graphics with their geometric shading. Sy’s Pop-inspired imagery is loud and saturated with color, offering clean, angular designs that seem tongue-in-cheek. Blocks of color join together with intensity to create offbeat characters and exaggerated expressions. One can’t help but sense a hint of nostalgia for an outmoded vision of the digital age. Take a look at some of Sy’s work below, images courtesy of the artist.
